Sage ACT! Pro 2011 is a contact management and productivity application for individuals and small groups. Sage ACT! 2011 links a database of contact information with calendar, task, and appointment scheduling features that can be shared with other users in a group. It includes contact history, status, reporting, document generation, and exporting capabilities.

Sage ACT! Pro 2011 allows up to 10 simultaneous users to work with the organization's data, but each user must have a separate installation of the software as well as the corresponding user license. This donation includes one user license. Organizations can add up to nine more by purchasing them directly from Sage.

Sage ACT! 2011 is designed as a productivity tool supporting a sales process. The process itself proceeds from identifying prospects or opportunities through attaining closure on a commitment, which can be easily mapped to a nonprofit model. For example, Sage ACT! 2011 could be used to define contacts for fundraising and then track the history of interactions with each contact or organization and the overall status of the campaign. Sage ACT! 2011 also contains e-mail templates and scheduling features that help organizations create multi-step marketing campaigns and maintain regular communication with actual and potential supporters.

Documents and emails can be attached to contact records to provide a complete history of the relationship. Different contacts can share notes and history. A company can be defined as an entity, and then contacts can be linked to the company record. Schedules and projects can be shared with other Sage ACT! 2011 users and integrated with Outlook for others in the organization who do not use Sage ACT! 2011.

Sage ACT! 2011 includes built-in word processing, reporting, and mail merge features, and it integrates with Outlook, Excel, Word, and Lotus Notes as well as with social networking services such as Facebook and LinkedIn. With additional software, Sage ACT! 2011 can be synchronized with handheld devices or integrated with various accounting software applications.
